James Buchanan, winner of 1986 Nobel Prize in Economics, is on the left, with his back turned toward Tullock. Gordon Tullock just looks really uncomfortable. I think the picture is from the mid-1960s.

They are two of most important people in my branch of social science, called "Public Choice."

I hope that Tullock wins a Nobel Prize also, but it is unlikely, on the merits. I don't begrudge Buchanan winning it alone, though, as his contributions in public finance and the theory of clubs stand alone quite nicely.
